sunbmac uses '__u32' for dma handle while invoking kernel DMA APIs,
instead of using dma_addr_t. This hasn't caused any 'incompatible
pointer type' warning on SPARC because until now dma_addr_t is of
type u32. However, recent changes in SPARC ATU (iommu) enables 64bit
DMA and therefore dma_addr_t becomes of type u64. This makes
'incompatible pointer type' warnings inevitable.

e.g.
drivers/net/ethernet/sun/sunbmac.c: In function ‘bigmac_ether_init’:
drivers/net/ethernet/sun/sunbmac.c:1166: warning: passing argument 3 of ‘dma_alloc_coherent’ from incompatible pointer type
./include/linux/dma-mapping.h:445: note: expected ‘dma_addr_t *’ but argument is of type ‘__u32 *’

This patch resolves above compiler warning.

Kernel source files need not include &lt;linux/kconfig.h&gt; explicitly
because the top Makefile forces to include it with:

  -include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h

This commit removes explicit includes except the following:

  * arch/s390/include/asm/facilities_src.h
  * tools/testing/radix-tree/linux/kernel.h

These two are used for host programs.

   2) New BPF types for per-cpu hash and arrap maps, from Alexei
      Starovoitov.

   3) Make several TCP sysctls per-namespace, from Nikolay Borisov.

   4) Allow the use of SO_REUSEPORT in order to do per-thread processing
   of incoming TCP/UDP connections.  The muxing can be done using a
   BPF program which hashes the incoming packet.  From Craig Gallek.

   5) Add a multiplexer for TCP streams, to provide a messaged based
      interface.  BPF programs can be used to determine the message
      boundaries.  From Tom Herbert.

   6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca.

   7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface
      with lots of configured addresses.  We were doing things like
      traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and
      flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as
      well.

   8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer.

   9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for
      ixgbe, from John Fastabend.

  10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis,
      from Kan Liang.

  11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported.
      From David Decotigny.

  12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types
      (ethernet vs Infiniband, etc.), port splitting, and switch device
      level attributes as a whole.  From Jiri Pirko.

  13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai.

  14) Add "Local Checksum Offload".  Basically, for a tunneled packet
      the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the
      checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload
      of the outer frame checksums to 'zero'), and we can take advantage
      of that in various ways.  From Edward Cree"

<id>5d01fa0c6bd84ddf1339a3fadfefecd2c28d472e</id>
<content type='text'>
  Add ldmvsw.c driver

  Details:

  The ldmvsw driver very closely follows the sunvnet.c code and makes
  use of the sunvnet_common.c code for core functionality.

  A significant difference between sunvnet and ldmvsw driver is
  sunvnet creates a network interface for each vnet-port *parent*
  node in the MD while the ldmvsw driver creates a network interface
  for every vsw-port node in the Machine Description (MD).
  Therefore the netdev_priv() for sunvnet is a vnet structure while
  the netdev_priv() for ldmvsw is a vnet_port structure.

  Vnet_port structures allocated by ldmvsw have the vsw bit set.
  When finding the net_device associated with a port, the common code keys
  off this bit to use either the net_device found in the vnet_port or the
  net_device in the vnet structure (see the VNET_PORT_TO_NET_DEVICE() macro in
  sunvnet_common.h). This scheme allows the common code to work with
  both drivers with minimal changes.

  Similar to Xen, network interfaces created by the ldmvsw driver will always
  have a HW Addr (i.e. mac address) of FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF and each will be
  assigned the devname "vif&lt;cfg_handle&gt;.&lt;port_id&gt;" - where &lt;cfg_handle&gt; and
  &lt;port_id&gt; are a unique handle/port pair assigned to the associated
  vsw-port node in the MD.

  off this bit to use either the net_device found in the vnet_port or the
  net_device in the vnet structure (see the VNET_PORT_TO_NET_DEVICE() macro in
  sunvnet_common.h). This scheme allows the common code to work with
  both drivers with minimal changes.

  Similar to Xen, network interfaces created by the ldmvsw driver will always
  have a HW Addr (i.e. mac address) of FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF and each will be
  assigned the devname "vif&lt;cfg_handle&gt;.&lt;port_id&gt;" - where &lt;cfg_handle&gt; and
  &lt;port_id&gt; are a unique handle/port pair assigned to the associated
  vsw-port node in the MD.

  Modify sunvnet common code and data structures to be compatible
  with both sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers.

  Details:

  Sunvnet operates on "vnet-port" nodes which appear in the Machine
  Description (MD) in a guest domain. Ldmvsw operates on "vsw-port"
  nodes which appear in the MD of a service domain.

  A difference between the sunvnet driver and the ldmvsw driver is
  the sunvnet driver creates a network interface (i.e. a struct net_device)
  for every vnet-port *parent* "network" node. Several vnet-ports may appear
  under this common parent network node - each corresponding to a common parent
  network interface.  Conversely, since bridge/vswitch software will need
  to interface with every vsw-port in a system, the ldmvsw driver creates
  a network interface (i.e. a struct net_device) for every vsw-port - not
  every parent node as with sunvnet.  This difference required some special
  handling in the common code as explained below.

  There are 2 key data structures used by the sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers
  (which are now found in sunvnet_common.h):

  1. struct vnet_port
     This structure represents a vnet-port node in sunvnet and a vsw-port
     in the ldmvsw driver.

  2. struct vnet
     This structure represents a parent "network" node in sunvnet and a parent
     "virtual-network-switch" node in ldmvsw.

  Since the sunvnet driver allocates a net_device for every parent "network"
  node, a net_device member appears in the struct vnet. Since the ldmvsw
  driver allocates a net_device for every port, a net_device member was
  added to the vnet_port. The common code distinguishes which structure
  net_device member to use by checking a 'vsw' bit that was added to the
  vnet_port structure. See the VNET_PORT_TO_NET_DEVICE() marco in
  sunvnet_common.h.

  The netdev_priv() in sunvnet is allocated as a vnet. The netdev_priv()
  in ldmvsw is a vnet_port. Therefore, any place in the common code
  where a netdev_priv() call was made, a wrapper function was implemented
  in each driver to first get the vnet and/or vnet_port (in a driver
  specific way) and pass them as newly added parameters to the common
  functions (see wrapper funcs: vnet_set_rx_mode() and vnet_poll_controller()).
  Since these wrapper functions call __tx_port_find(), __tx_port_find() was
  moved from the common code back into sunvnet.c. Note - ldmvsw.c does not
  require this function.

  These changes also required that port_is_up() be made
  into a common function and thus it was given a _common suffix and
  exported like the other common functions.

  A wrapper function was also added for vnet_start_xmit_common() to pass a
  driver-specific function arg to return the port associated with a given
  struct sk_buff and struct net_device. This was required because
  vnet_start_xmit_common() grabs a lock prior to getting the associated
  port. Using a function pointer arg allowed the code to work unchanged
  without risking changes to the non-trivial locking logic in
  vnet_start_xmit_common().

<title>ldmvsw: Split sunvnet driver into common code</title>

  Split sunvnet.c into sunvnet.c and sunvnet_common.c.

  Details:

  Since the sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers will both use common sunvnet code,
  move the functions (and support functions) anticipated to be common code
  from sunvnet.c to sunvnet_common.c. Similarly, sunvnet.h was renamed to
  sunvnet_common.h. The sunvnet_common.c code will be compiled into the
  kernel and act as a library of functions that are linked by either
  (or both) drivers when loaded.

  Function names for external functions in sunvnet_common.c (to be
  called by both the sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers) were tagged with a "_common"
  suffix to clearly designate them as common functions.

  No functional changes as of yet... just moved code verbatim to the new
  sunvnet_common.c/h files.

  Makefile/Kconfig support added to build sunvnet_common.c file. The code
  is included in the kernel if SUN_LDOMS is defined/selected.

  NOTE - per the SubmittingPatches documentation, since the code was just
  moved from one file another, the code was NOT checkpatch'd in this commit
  to aid in review.

<title>mm: introduce page reference manipulation functions</title>

The success of CMA allocation largely depends on the success of
migration and key factor of it is page reference count.  Until now, page
reference is manipulated by direct calling atomic functions so we cannot
follow up who and where manipulate it.  Then, it is hard to find actual
reason of CMA allocation failure.  CMA allocation should be guaranteed
to succeed so finding offending place is really important.

In this patch, call sites where page reference is manipulated are
converted to introduced wrapper function.  This is preparation step to
add tracepoint to each page reference manipulation function.  With this
facility, we can easily find reason of CMA allocation failure.  There is
no functional change in this patch.

In addition, this patch also converts reference read sites.  It will
help a second step that renames page._count to something else and
prevents later attempt to direct access to it (Suggested by Andrew).
